I thought my phone was dead because of that bootlooping issues, but miraculously Samsung customer service fixed my phone well.

(P.S. the May update also brings the Watermark mode for camera and battery optimization quirks, and it's good!)

If you buy some Huawei LITE phone you can expect only one update per use of phone and maybe one security patch through use. With G3 LG I waited marshmallow so long, and got it when Nougat start rolling out.

It's this reason why the... moreSony delivers very quick yet stable updates with still lots of customizations despite not having Android One. They're about the same speed as Nokia witu Android One, so I imagine they might be EVEN FASTER than Google themselves to update if they join the Android One community LOL.

In Czech rep I received Oreo update 23/5/2018. Plus some update on LG sw.
Most notable on camera UI. In new one is removed doubled mode button, or I dont know how it is called in english. Now only: setup/mode/color filter/ front-rear/ flash. So before you entered square mode and then under other button selected 4pics mode. Now everything is under one button. There are some new things now, but I miss old UI. Most anoying is that once camera off (like lock phone), it always return to normal mode. Before was returning to latest mode (eg. square). And I never use color filter option.

It's this reason why the new Nokia 7 Plus is attractive, AndroidOne support was always a simple solution that all OEMs neglected until now (Samsung, LG, Sony, HTC, Motorola, Blackberry, Lenovo, Huawei, Oppo, Xiaomi). The only one that was close was the Google-run Motorola with the Original Moto G, that all changed when Lenovo took the helm of course.

And the unlocked versions in India still continues to wait. Bravo LG ... how encouraging for your existing buyers who buy a flagship from you by paying the full amount (leave aside the other low and mid-segment devices).
Almost every manufacturer has Oreo rolled out at least for their prior year flagships by now. Amazing.
